Thaumatosian Tales

Slice of life in Modern-day Thaumatos, a world where magic is the norm and humanity is, well, not. Heads up, this is a series of short stories that are all connected but can be read individually. There is a core group of beings that will be focused on so it won't be too chaotic.

Yours Truly: A Necromancer's Way of Life

There is an assumption here that necromancers are decrepit old men and wart-crusted hags, but that is simply not the case. Necromancy, like any other profession, is diverse and rich in history. As such, there is a wide form of what they call, 'Expression,' when it comes to their controversial craft.

Oh, before I forget, if one should visit, never say that it is merely 'Just a profession.' For Necromancers, Necromancy is a way of life, and the roads of the undead capital, Noctis are catwalks for the edgy dark high fashion that all Necromancers seem to gravitate towards. From Post-Apocalyptic to Darkly Romantic, Necromancers are avid believers in 'Come as you are and rock it out.'

It is speculated that because of their deathly line of work, Necromancers cherish the life that they have all the more, but in order to confirm this, Yours Truly traveled into the Underworld to get you the truth! After Yours Truly interviewed several Necromancers there appeared to be a commonality that stuck out. Suffice to say, Yours Truly was quite surprised.

"What does being a Necromancer have to do with anything? I live as I like. If someone has an opinion on how I should live my life they can fuck off and die," was the ah, one of the more eloquent answers. Definitely not the philosophical answer that we thought it would be, but in a way, this kind of bluntness suits these particular beings.

Now, ta-ta darlings, I am due to go on a tour of Noctis's famous Will O' Wisp Park, Dead Man's Dream Boulevard, and of course the scintillating Ghostly Downtown. Wish me the best!

Some of these will be short and sweet, others, more oomph, to them when it comes to word-length. There will be a lot of characters so it won't always be 'Yours Truly'. In otherword a glorious mashup of 'slice of life in a fantasy world,' but it may develop to be more.
